“Roselynn, if you have any conditions, just go ahead and say it!” Sebastian
extended his hand, assuming the posture of a senior in charge.
Although Jennifer wore a grim expression, she remained silent.
She had long known that this daughter-in-law of hers was difficult to tame. If
she dared to make outrageous demands, she would make her son divorce

ladder!
“Alright, in that case, I’ll speak up!” Roselynn didn’t care what was going
through Jennifer’s mind. For the sake of her mother and Mackenzie, she
decided to give Jaxton another chance.
“First, from now on, your family must respect my family, especially my
\mother!”
The crowd trembled slightly. Their expressions varied!
Despite being shaken up, Alessandra said, “Roselynn, what are you talking
about? The Oatleys have always respected me!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrom the elderly woman’s perspective, anyone who didn’t curse or physically
harm her already respected her.
However, the Oatleys’ lack of respect toward her was never as direct and
explicit as the way the Zimmerman family expressed it.
So, Alessandra couldn’t perceive the truth, and even if she did, she wouldn’t
only think she had taken it wrongly.
Roselynn didn’t respond to her mother’s words. Her mother might be oblivious
to it, but it didn’t mean that was the case for her too. Especially Jennifer-she
hadn’t exchanged greetings with her mother from the get-go, didn’t sit down,
and directly claimed she couldn’t stand the tea her mother brewed. Weren’t
these signs of disrespect? That woman clearly looked down on her mother to
the core!

something they dislike. He really couldn’t figure out where this family’s anger
stemmed from.
“Alright, onto the third condition!” Roselynn didn’t waste any time and
continued, “After marriage, each person’s property remains independent.
Even in case of divorce, the assets won’t be split!”
Upon hearing the condition, the Oatleys once again reeled in stupefaction.

Jennifer burst into silent laughter. After the first two conditions, she thought
the third one might be even worse. Who would have thought it would actually
be something advantageous to the Oatleys and harmless?!
She knew full well that this kind of woman was internally proud. What
property could her family have that the Oatleys would covet? It was simply
hilarious!
“Alright, no problem!” Sebastian agreed at once, no longer in the mood for
prolonged discussions.
Mackenzie had been quietly observing and analyzing the situation. She
noticed the Oatleys’ joyful reaction to the third condition, reflecting, their

determined and confident. Her gaze seemed to hold a longer-term
perspective than her counterpart.
Does she believe that she will earn more than the Oatleys in the future?
Where does she get such confidence?

“Good, since you’ve agreed, I’ll write down the three conditions, and we can
all sign and stamp it after that. We’ll live according to the agreement from
now on!” Roselynn was very serious about this.
She knew early on that her younger brother and Mackenzie had also signed a
marriage agreement, so why couldn’t she do the same? It was the best way
to protect herself while also assisting Mackenzie.
The Oatleys didn’t mind her actions, especially Sebastian, who was only after
the chance to coopate with the Quillens.
As Roselynn stepped away, he immediately smiled and said, “Ms. Quillen, I

Emmanuel also looked at Mackenzie.
Mackenzie remained composed and monotoned, “I’ve come home for dinner
today and don’t intend to discuss business-”
